Lenny Ibizarre is one of the most colourful characters on Ibiza,
regularly entertaining the masses across the Sonica radio airwaves with
his eclectic freestyle playlist, we caught up with him chilling at home.
What is it about Ibiza that makes it so special?
The unique blend of people who generate this amazing vibe that we like
to refer to as ‘the magic’!
Does Ibiza still play a role in breaking a new tune?
More than ever!
How important is Ibiza to the building of a global club brand?
In a word: Vital. Few are the brands that did not use Ibiza as a
springboard to the international markets.
Describe your first Ibiza experience?
I was 18, just arrived, met a drop-dead gorgeous girl and we fell in
love as she unfolded the island for me. I was in total teenage sugar pop
XTC for two weeks solid.
Away from the club how do you relax on the island?
Head north, where I live, can’t hear a single noise throughout the
entire season. The perfect sublime tranquility far from the sea of
roaring hormones, club vixens and the dreaded warrior ravers of
Polytoximania!
Which is your favourite beach?
Xaraca’s extended rock section takes the cake!
What are you listening too chilling on the beach?
Nothing but the waves, birds and wind. When I want to experience nature,
I usually go for the full sensory overload. And after days on end in the
studio, it’s great to clear the noise out the ears!
You’ve got a night off, where do you head for food?
La Paloma, San Loren
Name three essential items needed to survive your Ibiza trip?
Head, heart and happiness.
What’s the strangest thing you’ve seen/experienced on the island?
I have been stuck on Ibiza in a sort of ‘Groundhog Day’ phenomenon for
over 18-years. I was only meant to stay for a couple of weeks back in
95…
